Wow that is thick! Sorry again about losing the pumpkin Matt. I'm sure that the heavy is probably also related to your strong growing practices

Impressive! The ethylene worked but got into the seeds maybe? Idk. The underside looks to have not grown as thickly (or as lengthy). Can you speculate as to why the top of the kin is growing better?

Super thick! Can't even imagine if you were able to hold that pumpkin for a full 100+ days.

jamieg- Thanks for your comment, good to know I am doing something right;-)

Little Ketchup- Seeds are not developed at the time of application, infect the ethylene mimics the successful pollination process.

Ken D. Not much cavity and it would have been interesting to see the final weight for sure and what % it would have been.

Maurice- Thickness is weird in a good way, the shape is not ideal but at some point the pumpkins do what they want.
